"Pepe from Reddi Services arrived quickly after calling that our showers and toilets started to backflow. Found the issue quickly (someone flushed wipes down the toilet clogging the line). Resolved the issue quickly. Sinks, toilets working as expected. Appreciate how quickly the company responded from the time I called to the time Pepe arrived and resolved the issue. Had the septic tank pumped just a year ago so was not expecting any issues. Now informing the 4 women in the household to not flush make-up wipes down the toilets as that seems to be what caused the issue."
"My bathroom toilet had a crack and had to be replaced, Ready Rooter arrived on time. The employee explain that the entire toilet has to replaced and quoted a reasonable price. They were respectful of me in my home. They did a Amazing job and did the right way. Thanks to the Company. I'll recommend this company to everybody."
"Everything started out fine. He was super professional, friendly and explained everything. When my husband got home I told him what was wrong with it. After taking the toilet apart to replace the wax as instructed we had to buy a whole new toilet. After turning the water back on discovered it was not the toilet at all. It is in the wall behind the shower. We still do not have running water. Then the guy that was supposed to come by and run a camera through our drains for free did not know what I was talking about so he never came by. $138 dollars for absolutely nothing. Thanks."
"James was prompted in both dropping by to make an estimate and when he came to install/rebuild the toilets. He was efficient and even came on a Saturday. Great Job. Will use West Plumbing for future plumbing needs."

The lifespan of a toilet can vary significantly. While the porcelain body itself can last up to 50 years or more with proper care, most plumbers suggest an average functional lifespan of 10 to 25 years, and many homeowners replace their toilets after about 20 years.
A toilet's longevity is influenced by factors like maintenance quality, hard water buildup, and damage to the finish. It's also important to note that internal components have much shorter lifespans than the bowl; for example, flappers may last only a few years, while fill valves can last around 10 years.
Even if an older toilet is still functional, consider upgrading to a high-efficiency model to save on water costs.
The amount of water wasted when a toilet ghost flushes depends on the cause of the ghost flushing. Leaky flapper valves tend to waste less water than a larger problem like a damaged flush valve that makes the toilet run constantly. Even if you don’t think you’re wasting a lot of water, it’s still a problem that should be fixed quickly.
Common problems include leaks, clogs, and running water. Regular maintenance prevents most issues.
You definitely can over-tighten toilet tank bolts. Unlike some other materials, porcelain can’t bend or flex, so when you over-tighten a screw into it, it could break against the added pressure. Only tighten them as much as needed to keep them in place and firm; any more and you could risk breaking the porcelain.
No, you can’t convert a gravity-flush toilet to a pressure-assist toilet. Pressure-assist toilets include a tank-within-the-tank, and a standard gravity-flush toilet doesn’t have a capability to include the additional tank. If you want the benefits of a pressure-assist toilet, you’ll have to make the investment in a new one.
